J.S. BACH: ORGAN MASTERWORKS, VOL. I
*** Clé du Mois ResMusica ***
After her magnificent Buxtehude boxed-set in 2007 (CD 50-2704/06); Japanese organist Kei Koito pursues her collaboration with Claves Records by laying the foundation stone of a cycle dedicated to masterpieces by Johann-Sebastian Bach.
Recorded in June 2009 on the organ of the Groningen Martinikerk in the Netherlands; she presents an anthology of – as ever - most carefully selected pieces. Original scores such as the Preludes and Fugues BWV 543; 548 et 743; the chorals "Liebster Jesu; wir sind hier" and "Schmücke dich; O liebe Seele"; and the Partita "Sei gegrüsset; Jesu gütig"; but also transcriptions by Bach (Adagio from the Sonata for violin and harpsichord BWV 1016) and by herself (Trio in G from the Sonata for viola di gamba and harpsichord BWV 1027).
Kei Keito excels in them; showing to those who had not yet encountered it her very special affinity with the St-Thomas cantor. She founded a Bach Festival in 1997 in Lausanne (where she lives); Festival that has become a reference in the matter.
